Gunpey Returns – Puzzle Game

There’s a new puzzle game on the handheld horizon today, with Namco Bandai announcing it will bring Gunpey to both the Sony PSP and Nintendo DS. Gunpey is expected to hit both systems this holiday season.

Gunpey’s puzzle gameplay is as follows: lines of various angles climb up the screen, meaning the player’s objective is to flip the lines, which are located in squares, to connect them over five columns. Connecting lines from left to right removes the connected row (think Tetris), and if an incomplete line reaches the top of the screen the game ends. Gunpey is an addictive and easy-to-learn puzzle game.

Gunpey has 40 different screen backgrounds and various tracks of stylized music. It also has a two-player multiplayer mode via the PSP’s wireless ad-hoc connectivity.
